The new auctions

You can change your gender by retiring or getting hold of a doctor.

Gender change
Name Change
Change your loom to whatever item you want of the same rank

So, what do you think of these new auctions? Being able to change gender and name without retiring is a really neat feature at least!

A heirloom of your choice? One can wonder if it's a +1, +2 or +3!
You can change one of your heirlooms of any rank into another one of the same rank (let me know if it is poorly worded, don't want people to start thinking they can buy any heirloom for gold).

It is created by the system. The main purpose of this auction is to make it easier to get rid of an item nobody else wants on the market (because it was nerfed, etc.). So for example you could exchange your +3 danish for any other +3 item.

Of the same rank, ok. But does that item come from a real player or is it a random generated loomed item? I don´t really get it, sorry if I am just to stupid.

I expect that it is just materialised and the other one is destroyed. I would think of it as morphing the item that you're giving him into the one that you're getting in return.

Apparently Harald posted in between the time it took me to hit "reply". Everything I said is redundant.

UNbalanced upkeep keeps this from being a fair mechanic to many players. Some never see their gold increase, and that's with 80% low tier weapons and armor.

Is it possible to get several of those auctions (especially heirloom trade) at the same time? It is a very nice idea, but not that helpful if we only get one or two item changes per week.

Why do we have a market at all then?

When you pin the price by offering blacksmith and now transmutation services....

Don't like the heirloom exchange thing tbh. It's gonna screw up the market big time.

They have to be used within 14 days to avoid hoarding. With the current interval you could have 2-3 at a time.

1 loom exchange per week will screw market? Just take a look how many danishes, crossbows, heavy lances is on the market. Sooner cRPG die then ppl will get rid of shitty items. Also first autcion costs already 220 k.

Yeah, if you add more than 200k to your offer of a +3 for another +3, you can get rid of anything on the market. Even a heavy lance.

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

Nah, I am talking about offering more than one "heirloom trade" auction at the same time, like the banner auctions. Just one or two auctions each week for the whole community isn't that much if you ask me. :)

Hell no. Once per week is going to have a big impact already.
